I Want To Go To There: Ben & Jerry's Announces it Will Unveil New
Flavor Inspired by NBC’S ‘30 Rock’ at Finale Party on January 31

Sneak Peak at Newest 2013 Flavor - for Series Finale - in New York

BURLINGTON, Vt.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ben
& Jerry’s ice cream company has announced it will reveal a
flavor aimed at celebrating the NBC series “30 Rock,” which airs its
series finale on January 31. The flavor will be ceremoniously unveiled
by Co-founder Jerry Greenfield at a New York City finale party, just
steps from the namesake building at Rockefeller Center. Invitees will
gather to view the series finale of “30 Rock” and sample the new “30
Rock”-themed concoction.

The flavor, freshly produced at its factories in Vermont, was rushed to
New York City for the event. Usually new flavors are released closer to
spring, but the company decided to bump up the timetable to have the
flavor on hand to accommodate the January 31st finale.
Luckily, “30 Rock” fans won’t have long to wait. The flavor will be
available across the country in Ben & Jerry’s scoop shops in February
and on the shelves of grocery stores and convenience stores shortly
thereafter.

Ben & Jerry’s announced that it will host a “30 Rock” viewing party in
New York City on January 31st to watch and celebrate the series finale.
A limited number of tickets are available at www.flynntix.org,
with all proceeds benefitting a local non-profit organization to be
announced on Thursday, January 31st. The event will feature
“30 Rock” trivia contests, giveaways, and, of course, attendees will
have a chance to sample the new flavor.

For those unable to attend, the company also stated it will offer a
chance online to obtain the “30 Rock” flavor – with more details to
come. All proceeds raised will benefit the same non-profit organization
to be announced on Thursday, January 31st.

In syndication, and now in the freezer, it is certain that the memory of
“30 Rock” will live on.
